That's how the market is—no one dares to move when prices are falling, but as soon as there's a rebound, they start cashing out.

I just saw an interesting move by a big holder—10 minutes ago, they deposited 2,900 ETH into a major exchange, worth about $9.42 million. This guy has already accumulated 5,900 ETH in deposits this week alone; if he sells now, he could make $707,000. Even more interesting, back on December 21st, he withdrew 8,550 ETH from the exchange at an average price of $2,991, and the remaining portion still has an unrealized profit of $654,000. His entire wallet still holds 20,081 ETH.

This clearly illustrates the point—big players have been cashing out at high levels, and now they’re sending coins back to the exchange to further reduce their positions. You see retail investors still hesitating about when to buy in, but the big fish have already started to run. The logic behind this operation is quite clear: take profits in stages during a rise, and run long before the price drops.

The big players are running, and we're still debating whether to get on board... What a gap.

It's the same old trick again. Large investors are reducing their positions while retail investors are still sleepwalking.

This big player's move is truly brilliant. They've already started to exit in batches at high levels, and now they're still pushing coins into the exchange... Retail investors are still hesitating whether to buy the dip or not.

Here we go again, big players stacking coins on the exchange while retail investors are still debating the entry price. The gap is really hard to describe. The whales are running away very quickly, and we're just watching the show. I just remembered, it's always like this. As soon as a rebound appears, they have already taken profits in batches. Charging 2900 ETH all at once is really outrageous. We're still calculating the average price. This move is clearly testing the waters; there are more tricks to come. Alright, let's keep watching the show. Hearing the stories of big players a hundred times won't change the retail investors' mindset. The contracts really do kill pigs; as soon as there's a rebound, someone is eager to jump in. It's hilarious.

This move by the big players is really impressive. Retail investors are still struggling with bottom-fishing, but they've already exited without a trace.

The big players' moves this time are really impressive. They are depositing coins while cashing out, while retail investors are still trying to figure out when to buy the dip. They've already left. --- It's the same old trick. As soon as there's a rebound, they start selling off. It's the same old routine. --- 2900 ETH was sent to the exchange in just ten minutes. This guy is seriously trying to dump the market. Do retail investors still dare to buy? --- Look at this rhythm. Cash out at high levels and reduce positions now. It's a classic script to cut the leeks. Don't say I didn't warn you. --- It's hilarious. We're still calculating the cost basis, while the big players have already started to leave in batches. The gap is huge. --- This is exactly why big players always make money and retail investors always lose. They play a game of strategy, while we play with our emotions.

Once again talking about the stories of big players, retail investors just listen for fun, they've already disappeared long ago. This wave of big players' moves is really clever, they take profits in batches when prices rise, and when they fall, they're already gone. What are we still waiting for? Alright, same old routine, big fish eat the meat, we drink the soup, but there's no soup to drink. This is outrageous, big players are depositing coins into exchanges, and retail investors are still asking when to get on board hahaha. Damn it, it's always like this. When big players move, we already know the outcome. Can't beat that. So, it’s best to follow the footsteps of big players; our own operations have long been cut off.
